What Are We Looking For?

Lars Wunderlich

Urban Spree Galerie presents "What Are We Looking For?", a solo show of new works by Berlin-based visual artist Lars Wunderlich a.k.a. "Look the Weird".

The exhibition will kick off during Gallery Weekend Berlin with an Opening on Friday, April 26th, 2019 from 18:30 in presence of the artist.

"What Are We Looking For?" is the outcome of a 3-month Art Residency at Urban Spree.

In this conceptual journey which is an acute exploration of modernity, Lars Wunderlich crafts and paints visual collages, replicates portraits generated by algorithms, integrates economic cycles, and juxtaposes different time elements which generate collisions, distortions and glitches, to better highlight the unreal nature of those representations and the danger thereof.

His paintings bear some similarities with the "New Leipzig School", albeit with technology at the core, and aesthetics boosted by Artificial Intelligence and modern faux-semblants.

They are representations of non-existing representations, real but fake, distorted, whether by time, space, speed, or truth. A perpetual collision of images.

The artist completed this week the Urban Spree Artist Wall (15 m x 8 m) with a similarly distorted mural composition integrating California wild fires, soldiers, divers... The wall is titled "Powerhouse".

Lars Wunderlich (b. 1981 in Neubrandenburg, GDR) is a German post-graffiti artist, member of the 9-member street art crew "The Weird" (Nychos, Low Bros, DXTR, Vidam...) under the moniker "Look the Weird".

Besides spraypainting/wallpainting and graphic design, Lars is an accomplished painter. "What are we looking for?" is his first solo exhibition with Urban Spree Galerie.
